We all know that TD is the most complete player in the game, which is something Frye is not even close to yet. However, Frye already possess alot of intangables in common with TD. Such as, basketball knowledge and shooting. But Frye needs to learn to move his feet on defense, use his length and knowledge of the game like TD does on defense. Frye's rebounds have greatly improved since training camp, but there is always room to grow.

Lets just hope that in about 2-5 yrs from now that he will be what TD is right now !!

If he turns out to be a poor man's TD I'll be very happy.

They're twins.

In our dreams...

...and Duncan shot 55% his first year. and won it all his second year. he's the best power forward ever, please don't compare Frye to him. It's simply not fair.

Please stop. Seriously.

Amen...

Frye is NOT Duncan. DUncan = Frye + a great post game + all NBA defense

yea, but duncan only won in his second yr cuz he had Drobb. Thats like putting Frye next to Ewing in his prime.

Duncan is one of the greateest PF's of all time.

Frye is a rookie that has only proven that he can shoot jumpshots consistently.

Let's stop with the comparisons. Let Frye be Frye.

I just don't want people to get there hopes up too much because that means in 3 years when he hasn't led us to a title people will hate him and say he isn't a winner.

Bok, I usually back you up but this is ridiculous Frye is a nice player but lets be realistic here Frye has a long way to ever become anything near what Tim Duncan is. Duncan can score both inside and outside and has been able to do that since he came into the game. Frye has no semblence of a postgame at all right now which that alone makes the comparison ridiculous. Let Frye work on his postgame and defense and see where he is 2 years from now before we call him TD Jr.
